Im probably just stick with my console as handhelds dont really do it for me anymore. That said my brother and his girlfriend would love it although it would need to be a gift from someone as they are not gonna spend for one. They would also need 2 as she definitely would hog it
Well xbox jacked up gamepass price 2x like 33% so was there any real growth in sub count? Seems more like just squeezed more out of those who stayed and lost sales on xbox and pc
From Soft for games although PC day and date, even more in the anime and manga space for further domination in an ever rapidly growing market while tradition film and media die and a boatload of IP which todoroki says they need more
@ButterySmooth30FPS sames, mine is mostly for the OG and 360 games i can only play there. The next xbox games really havent been of interest and i just want to play on Playstation, system and controller being a preferencey
Seriously what is the obsession with live service chasing. Few ever get the success companies dream of and the rest burns tens and hundreds millions of dollars. Sony has burned billions between Bungie, FireWalk and Haven as well as the other projects
Listening to a podcast now. Guy says he likes it like an 8-8.5 but wouldnt recommend it as there are alot more of these that are way better. Also says he skips all the dialogue cause its bad. If you are giving it a 8.5 it shouldnt be a game where you say, there are tons of better similar new games out and you skips half the point of these games. Remaster the first 2 for PS
Sony: We need more IPs
Sony: lets sell off an IP
Not sure if its for the relationship with Kojima towards Physiant or what but Playstation continues down a weird path. Not that they are going anywhere for now but i dont want them crying when engagement and players in their ecosystem drop.
Ps: begin the cries for it to be on Gamepass even though is $20 right now lol
Funny cause i dont think critic scores mean anything. They are attacking anyone with any kind of negative look on the game like skillup and mrmattyplays who dont even bring up the politic points as causes for poor score. Decide what u want but in no way should these publications be implying it should be in GOTY discussion
I mean the number is gonna continue to escalate. So much focus on live service still resulting in total money sinks. Then Single player wise EU and NA studios are really pushing away alot of players in dropping quality and offputting naratives/characters etc. we have yet to see the Ubiosft cuts yet in full which are gonna be alot
@RBMango exactly. Temporary growth means nothing if they are only in for a month and dip. Like Starfield last year, it makes no beneficial change when subscribers spike for one month paying $17-$20 rather than them buying for $70
Pc growth for GP stagnated. Literally no growth on console without shifting units which they are not. Majority of people who actively use xbox and played Cod before already had gamepass or will upgrade from a lower level for no growth.
With Satya eying this release up and seeing Playstation trying to save this game from financial ruin, only more reason to go full send into 3rd party territory
Bold to Assume Bioware survives this release in todays industry of closure news. Whether good or not and sells or not could be a Square Enix didnt meet expectations nonetheless
I would go 8.5. Its missing the flair and style that Persona 5 had and personally think character designs no bad but again weaker than Persona 5 greatness. Might play in spurts over time and maybe throw in a second game while playing it 15 hrs in
The Series X console is a fine console, S is underpowered. I just prefer Playstation.
Highly praise xbox for back compatibility which i frequently use. Sadly their news games are unappealing and or extremely underwhelming on release.
Ive had plenty of reward points saved up and really havent spent anything on software on xbox for years with my OG/360/one game in place. Sure there are many like me as well and the low spend of players on xbox definitely making it harder and harder for games to launch there
Dead island 2 is exact game i was just waiting for to hit the service. Wasnt gonna. Uy for its $35-$40 sale price. I ll definitely be checking out dino crisis
Just dont see how selling 30,000 copies over time is worth the squeeze on these things. They will port this to PC but wont spend the resources to port remaster the PS3 trilogies to modern hardware

Re: Capcom Strategy Game Kunitsu-Gami Fails to Meet Sales Targets
@LikelySatan yeah but they themselves valued it at $15
Re: Capcom Strategy Game Kunitsu-Gami Fails to Meet Sales Targets
Im waiting for a sale. Why pay full price if they give it away for peanuts on xbox.
Also how could this fail, its multiplatform so surely xbox and pc would make this ijcredibly successful

Re: Dragon Age PS5 Remaster Collection Is Unlikely, But 'Never Say Never'

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Web Swings to PC in January 2025
I’m waiting for Sony also to only charge like $50 for the pc port. Future releases may just wait for deeper sales.
Also is Nixes, Insomniac and Asobi the only studios working?
